A diode is a device that allows electric current to flow in only one direction, from its anode towards its cathode but not the other way around. There is plenty of online material explaining diode ...

How to replace MOSFETs with load switches, and the impact of on-resistance. Swapping out diodes with ideal diodes, and the use of ideal-diode controllers. Why replacing fuses and resettable fuses with ...

The word “ideal” is often used in introductory engineering classes as a starting point to describe a component. However, at some point in any actual project or design, reality sets in, as there’s no ...
